He won’t be denied
Trehan Daciano, known as the Prince of Shadows, has spent his life serving his people, striking in the night, quietly executing any threat to their realm. The coldly disciplined swordsman has never desired anything for himself—until he beholds Bettina, the sheltered ward of two of the Lore’s most fearsome villains.
She’s bound to another
Desperate to earn her guardians’ approval after a life-shattering mistake, young Bettina has no choice but to marry whichever suitor prevails—even though she’s lost her heart to another. Yet one lethal competitor, a mysterious cloaked swordsman, invades her dreams, tempting her with forbidden pleasure.
A battle for her body and soul
Even if Trehan can survive the punishing contests to claim her as his wife, the true battle for Bettina’s heart is yet to come. And unleashing a millennium’s worth of savage need will either frighten his Bride away—or stoke Bettina’s own desires to a fever-pitch.

I love Kresley Cole's Immortals After Dark series and I'm sure this new series will be just as amazing. Being in the YA genre, it won't have all the smexy times her Vampires, Weres, Demons and Valkyrie have in IAD but I'm sure with Cole's fantastic story telling, compelling characters and the wonderful worlds she creates this will be another hit for her.
Braine
THE SWEETEST TEMPTATION…
Black ops agent Solomon Judah awakens caged and bound in a twisted zoo where otherworlders are the main attraction. Vika Lukas, the owner’s daughter, is tasked with Solo’s care and feeding. The monster inside him yearns to kill her on sight, even though she holds the key to his escape. But the human side of him realizes the beautiful deaf girl is more than she seems—she’s his.
THE ULTIMATE PRICE…
Vika endures the captives’ taunts and loathing, hoping to keep them alive even if she can’t free them. Only, Solo is different—he protects her. But as hostility turns to forbidden romance, his feelings for her will be used against him…and he’ll be put to a killer test

What are you waiting for?
You know what's funny?! LOL. This week you both have flip flopped. Cimmaron has took her mind our of the gutter and Braine has entered it. The reason I say that is because C picked a YA title and I think the Gena Showalter is adult. They both sound great however, I'm dying to get my hands on the Showalter book.
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday girlies :)
These both look amazing! I haven't read any Kresley Cole but I have the hardback of Lothaire that I won and I haven't read any Gena Showalter... I KNOW shame on me :( But I will definitely go check these out and make sure I read some books from these authors really soon :D Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteBoth awesome picks, and both on my TBR List! :D I love Gena Showalter so I'll definitely be picking that up. But I'm new to Kresley Cole so I hope that goes over well x] I hope you both have a great day!
